DUBAI (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia welcomed the new U.S. policy towards Iran and said lifting sanctions had allowed Iran to develop its ballistic missile programme and step up its support for militant groups, state news agency SPA reported on Friday.

The kingdom said Iran took advantage of additional financial revenues to support for the Lebanese Shi’ite movement Hezbollah and the Houthi group in Yemen.
